Notes

This is my first moebius and my first brioche knitting. It was much easier than I expected. It just required watching the available videos and most of all reading the directions carefully.
It is a beautiful pattern, thick, squishy cowl.

Cast-on: I cast on 150 stitches. This makes it long enough to twist behind the neck and wrap it around your head to keep your ears and neck warm.

Bind-off: I L.O.V.E the tubular bind off! In addition to the look which is so pretty, it also pulls the stitches together to keep the shape and also make it more ‘squishy’. I used size 9 needles for the bind off.

I’ll have to make another one.
